Julia 139



Lovely Julia was not the first who was pleased with these antique glasses. Fifteen years ago, a friendly optician called Danel fitted the oldest glasses in my collection (made c. 1860) with lenses. He did this in the old way at no extra cost. I showed him and his young wife some other antique glasses from my collection, including the pair shown here. I said to the young lady that these glasses might be near her own prescription. She tried them on straightaway, exclaimed "These are perfect!" and danced all around the shop. Julia did not go that far. The T junction with its busy traffic was not a suitable place for dance steps.
